So if I'm getting this right, or not let me know; it seems like the Democrats are blocking the spending to stop the 'boarder wall' from being funded. I also have heard that the Democrats are looking to become the party of undocumented immigrants and Middle Eastern refugees, both sometimes tend to have been groups that had a reputation to cause problems and not know the laws of the land they are transplanted into and break those laws and the Democrats want to protect those groups from what it sounds like. also i think this is more symbolic of a gesture to cause Dem branded 'mischief' symbolically on the day Trump got into office, " Jan 21st. " but this is just my silly conspiracy thinking on this thing or a general simple 'take-away' from it.
